Not at all. Threads like this can turn into never ending jokes. There are some people in this forum who like to turn everything into a suspiciously "political" discussion, to lure the unwary into breaking the rules, so the wise turn them into the long running joke they deserve to be. Sadly some of the humour here is too subtle for some, and they get to labouring their point, thinking it has been misunderstood. I am quite sure that we can boil those hooves a little bit more.

 

Ha, true enough.

 

In other news, Justin Bieber wrote back to me. Using blue ink.

Xact. Don't people live their own lives by their own rules anymore?

 

If people lived by their own rules, I won't be getting snide remarks for spending more than $10 on a pen. So clearly not.

T'is surely a better thing for a man to use Yama Budo ink than go shooting a bunch of kids in a school.

I am not sure I see the connection, but I would rather use Yama Budo than shoot pool.

It was the third of June, another sleepy, dusty Delta day
I was out choppin' cotton and my brother was balin' hay
And at dinner time we stopped and walked back to the house to eat
And Mama hollered out the back door "y'all remember to wipe your feet"
And then she said "I got some news this mornin' from FPN"
"Today Billie Joe used Yama Budo in a fountain pen"

haha I do like your Ode to Yama Budo.

 

Plus, it looks like you have solved the mystery of why Billie Joe jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge.

Yama budo - the cause of men to jump off bridges.

 

Darn it, I should have presented quite a few people with samples of them. Would have made my life much more pleasant.

Easy tiger.

 

I can't wait for MisterBoll to get on the case and solve another song mystery. Who is the subject in Carly Simon's song, You're So Vain?

I was about to say "Me!" but then I checked the lyrics, and it'd be a tad hard for me to be with a wife of a close friend, so clearly not.

Supposedly Mick Jagger but the stories I've heard about him with certain Long Island types makes me doubt it.

A much better song "about someone" is Guts by John Cale.

 

It encompasses two of my favorite recording artists.

[Fabienne]

I am trying to think of a way to link Yama-Budo and the budget deficit but I am still working on that one...(it usually gets people hot, you know).

Dick Ebersol, an NBC exec, paid $50,000 at a charity auction to get the answer to that one. He's not allowed to tell anyone else.

[Ghost Plane]

If the finance committee was open to writing with Yama-budo, we wouldn't HAVE a deficit. Because they would be over in the test thread learning from Schrodinger's Cat and thinking outside boxes.

Thank you for this clarification. Now I understand the gasps of dismay, when I signed the minutes of my mans club with the sample I had (yes I really did). I suppose now I have to shelve my hopes of obtaining a Hello Kitty pen filled with Hope Pink, or Pinkly, for that same purpose (yes I really would).

Oh... Well that leaves one more for me.

[Albinoni]

Am I not to use blue ink because it makes me look butch?

 

Yama budo is a beautiful magenta. In a very dry writer it can look more pink. In a very wet writer it looks very much like a deep wine. Pick a wet writer and be happy with your new winy ink if it really worries you.

Or better still black

Long Island types? Do tell!!

 

For your enjoyment: Mr. Jagger sporting a suit of Yama-Budo:

A man can use any color he wants to.

 

It might not work for all things, but oh well.

 

FWIW, I own a pink shirt and two pink ties.

 

If that suit is truly Yama-Budo, then yuck.

 

I wouldn't use it not because it would make me less of a "man," I wouldn't use it because I don't like it.
